==> Caveats
The php.ini file can be found in:
/usr/local/etc/php/5.4/php.ini
✩✩✩✩ PEAR ✩✩✩✩
If PEAR complains about permissions, 'fix' the default PEAR permissions and config:
chmod-R ug+w/usr/local/Cellar/php54/5.4.16/lib/php
pear config-set php_ini /usr/local/etc/php/5.4/php.ini
✩✩✩✩ Extensions ✩✩✩✩
If you are having issues with custom extension compiling, ensure that this php is
in your PATH:
PATH="$(brew --prefix josegonzalez/php/php54)/bin:$PATH"
PHP54 Extensions will always be compiled against this PHP. Please install them
using --without-homebrew-php to enable compiling against system PHP.
✩✩✩✩✩ INTL Support ✩✩✩✩✩
icu4c is broken as of mxcl/homebrew#03ed757c, so you will need to install intl as
a separate extension:
brew install php54-intl

To launch php-fpm on startup:
* If this is your first install:
mkdir-p ~/Library/LaunchAgents
cp/usr/local/Cellar/php54/5.4.16/homebrew-php.josegonzalez.php54.plist ~/Library/LaunchAgents/
launchctl load -w ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew-php.josegonzalez.php54.plist
* If this is an upgrade and you already have the homebrew-php.josegonzalez.php54.plist loaded:
launchctl unload -w ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew-php.josegonzalez.php54.plist
cp/usr/local/Cellar/php54/5.4.16/homebrew-php.josegonzalez.php54.plist ~/Library/LaunchAgents/
launchctl load -w ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew-php.josegonzalez.php54.plist
The control script is located at /usr/local/Cellar/php54/5.4.16/sbin/php54-fpm
Mountain Lion comes with php-fpm pre-installed, to ensure you are using the brew version you need to make sure /usr/local/sbin is before /usr/sbin in your PATH:
PATH="/usr/local/sbin:$PATH"
You may also need to edit the plist to use the correct "UserName".
Please note that the plist was called 'org.php-fpm.plist'in old versions
of this formula.
To have launchd start php54 at login:
ln-sfv/usr/local/opt/php54/*.plist ~/Library/LaunchAgents
Then to load php54 now:
launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.php54.plist
Warning: /usr/local/sbin is not in your PATH
You can amend this by altering your ~/.bashrc file
